It has been several months since I have experienced one, but mine also were in the torso area and felt like I was getting a big squeeze, it would last for several seconds and I could not breathing well while it was going on. Mine almost always happened (90% of the time) while I was lying down

Oh the nasty hug.....like TexasMS said it is like getting squeezed to death. Now mine last days. No relief sitting or lying down. Sometimes it is even hard to wear anything close to being snug on my body. I haven't really found anything that will work.

Okay, now I know that I am not crazy. I have had this &quot;hug&quot; thing going on for almost 3 years. I blamed it on the arthritis in my spine, but this hug never lets up. I also have a cyst on my kidney, but my urologist says that the cyst should not have that type of effect. Glad to know it's probably the &quot;hug&quot;. Sometimes, I can't stand a bra to touch me and add to the tightness. It is easier to handle lying down.

Lotte that sounds like the &quot;HUG&quot; to me. Ive had MS for like 6 years now and Ive gotten the hug just twice and that was the worst pain Ive ever felt in my life. I want to have that condition officially renamed to the &quot;MS CRUSH&quot; Are u with me, Lotte?

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
